As Jim suggests, your data is probably lost but, if you want to  
recover the procedures (which are sometimes more important than the  
data), drag each file icon onto an MS Word icon or open from within  
Word (making sure you select the "All documents" option), SaveAsText  
and, amidst a huge collection of garbage, you will find your  
procedures in pristine condition. I guess any text application would  
do it as well.
